Jim Healy

You don’t generally think of going to the hospital to enjoy yourself, but it became an enjoyable experience. I’m very thankful for the way things have turned out.

Jim Healy doesn’t remember much from his collapse at FitClub, but his wife remembers getting the news.

“I got a phone call from the FitClub saying that he had collapsed, that his heart had stopped. It was going by then, but that’s not news you ever want to hear,” Coreen Healy said.

Jim had 99% blockage in the widow maker and received a stent from Dr. Roberto Pacheco.

Jim wanted a certificate stating that he survived the widow maker heart attack, and the team at Prairie gave him just that.

“You don’t generally think of going to the hospital to enjoy yourself, but it became an enjoyable experience,” Jim said. “I’m very thankful for the way things have turned out, and I feel alive and full of energy. So I think things are really headed in the right direction.”
